Jan, this is a no-win situation. When a mother is pining for her child (whatever the age of mother & child) there are NO words or actions that will stop the horrendous feeling inside of despair, emptiness and immense sense of loss. We all know the one thing that will 'heal' Joyce - and if that lad of hers carries on ignoring her, she will continue in this way.

You are there for her and that is one hell of a positive! Your patience and care are essential for her even if there are times when you think she doesn't appreciate it.

Take care
LW
